Ah, right. Gosh, some of these are hilarious actually. How old are these? These images here were all done when the dodo was alive. This one around 1600, 1601. He looks ridiculous. That was the first time the dodo was ever portrayed. That is it. That is amazing. It' s amazing. Huge, look at this, compared to this one. This looks like a plucked vulture. and then this looks very comedy. Why were they so different? Well, it' s a combination of bad art. But also they relied entirely on accounts of mariners who' d actually been there. These were artists that were trying to put together these pictures from these other people' s accounts. Even the greatest scientific minds were misled by the early paintings. Richard Owen, the founder of the Natural History Museum, was determined to get a dodo skeleton and piece it together in a lifelike pose. |
